For those who are not familiar with the CPA Marketing and Commission Payload Marketing course, I am sharing here with you the video presentations:

You will notice that there are so many google blogs and sites available that it is difficult to put all of those here. I have tried my best to present as many as I knew. I suggest you to bookmark this page for your day to day reference.

I consider Google Baseas a site for online classified ads like the Craigslist. Some bloggers call it as an online marketplace like eBay without the auctions.

Google describes Google Base as “a place where you can easily submit all types of online and offline content that Google will host and make searchable online”.

You can use Google Base to post items that you want to sell; other users can search the Google Base database to find items they want to buy. When a match is made, you and the other user arrange payment and shipping between yourselves.

Quick Facts about Google Base

Cost: Free

How to Submit: You can submit information about all types of online and offline content to Google Base, by either the standard web form or, if you have more than 10 items to submit, via a data feed. When you submit information via the web form, you can attach up to 15 digital files in the following formats: PDF (.pdf), Microsoft Excel (.xls), Text (.txt), HTML (.html), Rich Text Format (.rtf), Word Perfect (.wpd), ASCII, Unicode and XML. Please note: the files you upload may not exceed 20 megabytes total in size, and we reserve the right to review all items in order to ensure they comply with the Google Base Terms and Conditions.

Languages: Google Base is currently available in English and German interfaces.

How it’s different: Google Base enables you to add attributes describing your content, so that searchers can easily find it. The more popular individual attributes become, the more often we’ll suggest them when others post the same items. Similarly, items that become more popular will show up as suggested item types in the Choose an existing item type drop-down menu.

Why Should You Use Google Base?

If you have information you want to share with others but aren’t sure how to reach them, Google Base is for you. You can easily submit all types of online and offline content to Base, and if your content isn’t online yet, we’ll put it there. You can describe any item you post with attributes, which will help people find it when they do related searches. In fact, based on your items’ relevance, users may find them in their results for searches on Google Product Search and even our main Google web search. The main benefits of Google Base include:

Free content hosting
Google Base represents a new opportunity to put any kind of content online, even if it isn’t a web page.

Distribution
By bringing offline content online, Google Base is more accessible and useful. Even online content becomes more ‘discoverable’ when users are able to refine their search results based on attributes. You can also link users to your own website, thus making your content far more accessible to the world.

Ease of Use
Now you can go to one place to upload content to Google. You can post individual items by completing a simple web form or submit a data feed with ten or more items in standard formats such as TSV, RSS 1.0 and RSS 2.0.

Best of all, Google Base is entirely free. And you’re always in control; you can edit or archive your items whenever you want.

Google’s goal is to organize the world’s information, and that includes almost anything you might want to contribute, whether it’s your store inventory, collection of original poetry, or research paper on cancer receptors. You can submit your information using either the standard web form or, if you have more than 10 items to submit, via google data feed options.

Do you know that you can use google to search for tracking information from UPS, FedEx, and other shipping companies? Let us explore what else we can do with Google to find out other information.

Google for Searching Facts

If you are looking for the hard facts, google can be a great help. So if you phrase your query correctly and if google has indexed that information, you can get the precise information you need at the top of the search results page.

So Fact-based information could be birthdates, birthplaces, population etc. If you want to find out where Mark Twain was born, enter ‘birthplace mark twain’ in the search box query.

Google also lets you track the status of any US flight, and many international flights. All you have to do is enter the flight number into the google search box.

Google knows the names of tens of thousands of popular performers; all you have to do is enter the performer’s name in the search box, and google returns specific information about that performer.

Needless to say you can do a lot with google for all the special information,

If you are looking for any specific information on any blog, you can use the always friendly google search box but there is a bettter way to search blogosphere using google blog search. Why google blog search was needed? Google’s traditional method of crawling the Web for updated information can take few weeks to update and this is too slow for indexing the blog content. The solution to this problem came in the form of site feeds. Google hit upon the idea of using these RSS feeds to seed its blog search index. By aggregating RSS feeds into its index, Google Blog Search is constantly updated with new blog content.

How to List Your Blog with Google Blog Search?

If you have a blog and you want it to be included in the Google Blog Search, you don’t have to submit your blog to Google for indexing. All you have to do is make sure you’ve enabled a site feed for your blog. You can choose either an RSS or Atom feed.

Two Ways to Search Using Google Blog Search

There are actually two ways to use google blog search.

The first one is – you can go the main google blog search page i.e. http://blogsearch.google.com/ and then you can enter your query into the search box and click the Search Blogs button.
